Defines the concept of permanent filtration in X-ray tube assemblies for medical diagnosis and radiotherapy and describes a method for its determination. It contains requirements for statements of compliance for accompanying documents and for markings on X-ray tube assemblies. Methods are given to determine the permanent filtration in an X-ray tube assembly with an accuracy that is sufficient to enable the appropriate additional filtration to be provided in order to attain the desired total filtration.
